What's left behind the scenes
- Following terrible test screenings, the initial 2 hour and 30 minute cut of the film was shortened to 86 minutes.
- Mel Gibson and Nicole Kidman were initially considered for the roles of John Steed and Emma Peel. Gwyneth Paltrow was also offered the role of Emma. Ultimately, the parts were played by Ralph Fiennes and Uma Thurman.
- The script was sent to Diana Rigg, who was offered the role of Alice, a secret agent disguised as a 'typically English' old woman. But she declined. The role was ultimately played by Elin Atkins.
- The idea for the film was taken from the episode "Too Much Water" of the 1965 Avengers television series.
- Several scenes not included in the film were used in the promotional video.
- John Steed's first partner, Catriona Gale (actress Honor Blackman), disappears from the series to appear as Pussy Galore in the Bond film 'Goldfinger'. In 'The Avengers' Christmas special, they joke that John Steed will receive a postcard from Fort Knox from Mrs. Gale. Some scenes from 'Goldfinger' were filmed there.
- The quintessential James Bond, Sean Connery, returns the favor to 'The Avengers' by playing the villain, while the film's creators persistently tried to parody the 'Bond' style.
- John Steed himself (Patrick Macnee) plays a Bond ally – Sir Godfrey Tibbett in 'A View to a Kill'. For the sake of secrecy, Sir Godfrey is forced to pretend to be Bond's servant.
- Steed's second partner, Mrs. Emma Peel (actress Diana Rigg), appears in the Bond film 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' a couple of years after leaving 'The Avengers', even managing to marry Bond, only to be killed shortly after.
